Radu Petric, after UPC withdrawl from ACC: I understand them being upset
ACC’s president said he understands that UPC “aren’t happy with the lack of results” lately of the organization he manages.
Petric explained, for Paginademedia.ro, that UPC’s not being happy is similar with ACC not being happy, especially when authorities became “a deaf conversation partner” when it comes of communication with organizations that represent Telecom industry’s interests.
“I blame them being upset on association’s lack of dialogue with the authorities. Despite our efforts to communicate industry’s opinion, we couldn’t find any kind of interest in being listened by authorities. No authority wants to hear the opinion of those affected from the industry (…) There is no public consultations, specialized associations are ignored”, Radu Petric, ACC’s director, said, for Paginademedia.ro
